We all get tired from time to time, and Tamera Mowry-Housley has an encouraging, faith-filled message for us when we need a pick-me-up.
“If it looks like I’ve been crying, it’s because I have,” Mowry-Housley said in a recent Instagram video. “Have you ever been just tired, exhausted, depleted?”
The actress said that in those moments, she hears “the Holy Spirit say, ‘Tamera, you know the truth, and you’ve actually helped people with this truth. Now it’s time for you to walk in that truth.’ And that truth is learning to rest in God. We pray for things, God answers our prayers.”

“I have found myself worrying in God’s answered prayers for my life because I’m trying to control the result of it,” Mowry-Housley continued, then shared Jeremiah 29:11 — “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’”
In the caption of her post, Mowry-Housley wrote, “Sometimes the tired doesn’t come while we’re waiting on God. It comes after He answers, when we start carrying the outcome like it’s ours to hold. He has been so gentle with me about that 🙏🏽 Not a lecture, just a quiet invitation to put it down 🕊️If you’re worn out in the middle of your own answered prayer, this is for you.”
The actress often shares her faith on social media, encouraging her followers to reflect on and strengthen their own relationship with God.
In one recent post, Mowry-Housley wrote, “If you see me glowing, it’s God. If you see me healing, it’s God. If you see me still standing, definitely God. If my life reflects anything good, let it point back to Him. Because without God, I would not be who I am today.”
She has also shared the struggles that can come with standing strong in faith — and how it’s always worth it in the end.
“No one talks about how hard it is to walk faithfully with God,” Mowry-Housley wrote over a video of herself and her daughter worshipping. “It’s easy to post the verses and cute Bible notes, but there’s a lifetime of spiritual warfare, losing friendships, and being tempted and tested constantly throughout every day. It’s not easy to be separated from the world, but man it’s so worth it.”
Mowry-Housley’s latest Instagram post is an encouraging message for anyone who needs to remember that God’s plan is always working in our favor.
